Compared to muscimol, gaboxadol binds less potently to α<sub>4</sub>β<sub>3</sub>δ GABA<sub>A</sub> receptors (EC<sub>50</sub> .2μM vs 13μM), but is capable of evoking a greater maximum response (] 120% vs 224%).<ref name=":0" /> The supra-maximial efficacy of gabaxadol at α<sub>4</sub>β<sub>3</sub>δ GABA<sub>A</sub> receptors has been attributed to an increase in the duration and frequency of channel openings relative to the endogenous agonist GABA.<ref name=":0" />
